Abstract: Les unités lumineuses selon l'art antérieur émettent une lumière latérale, ce qui implique que les DEL (10 à 13) doivent être disposées de manière oblique sur des supports en tôle, feuilles conductrices ou cartes de circuits imprimés séparé(e)s. L'utilisation de tels supports et la fixation desdites DEL (10 à 13) sont complexes et onéreuses. L'objectif de l'invention est de disposer le moyen lumineux (10 à 13) à émission latérale de manière simple et économique sans faire appel à des supports supplémentaires. A cet effet, le moyen lumineux (10 à 13) comprend au moins une surface de réflexion totale (14) servant à réfléchir les rayons (S) en direction d'un réflecteur (3) qui réfléchit les rayons (S) en direction d'un disque lumineux (2). La surface de réflexion totale (14) peut être disposée en fonction de l'utilisation de l'unité lumineuse, de façon que la lumière prenne la direction souhaitée. L'emploi de supports supplémentaires n'est pas nécessaire. De préférence, cette unité lumineuse est utilisée dans des rétroviseurs extérieurs de véhicules automobiles, mais elle peut aussi être employée dans tous les domaines des techniques de signalisation et d'éclairage.

Abstract: A method for sharp, crisp hemming inner and outer aluminum sheet metal panels in which a flange is formed along an outer edge so that the flange extends from a bend line and lies in a plane generally perpendicular to the plane of the outer panel. This bend line, furthermore, has an outer radius in the range of (1.0 mm+t)>R>(0.2 mm+t) where t=the thickness of the outer panel. The inner panel is then positioned on the outer panel so that an outer edge of the inner panel is adjacent the bend line. The flange is then bent so that the flange overlies the outer edge of the inner panel while simultaneously compressing the flange in the direction towards the bend line. Thereafter, the flange is compressed against the outer peripheral portion of the inner panel thus completing the hem. The present invention thus achieves a sharp radius bend on the outer edge of the panel with a layer radius bend on the inner panel as well as a class "A" surface on the outer panel adjacent the hem which is free of recoil or other distortion.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive random access memory is operated in a toggle fashion so that its logic state is flipped from its current state to the alternate state when written. This provides for a more consistent and reliable programming because the magnetic transitional energy states during the toggle operation are stable. In a write situation, however, this does mean that the state of the cell must be read and compared to the desired state of the cell before the cell is flipped. If the cell is already in the desired logic state, then it should not be written. This read time penalty before writing is reduced by beginning the write process while reading and then aborting the write step if the cell is already in the desired state. The write can actually begin on the cell and be aborted without adversely effecting the state of the cell.

Abstract: A device (10) for sieving and/or mixing is disclosed which includes a base (12) and a container (13) mounted thereon for rotation about an axis which is substantially horizontal. The container has a peripheral wall (14) extending angularly about and longitudinally relative to the axis, and an opening (25) extending longitudinally relative to the axis to provide for movement of material into and out of said space. Means to drive the container angularly about the axis are provided so that any material which is introduced into the container may be processed as required by rotation thereof. The peripheral wall is configured with an internal baffle to prevent material from being delivered when the container is rotated one way, but delivers material from within said space through the opening when the container is moved angularly about its axis in the opposite direction being a predetermined direction of rotation for delivery.

Abstract: A hinge for a child safety barrier, consisting of first ( 1, 9 ) and second ( 2, 10 ) bracket parts, wherein the first bracket part is formed with a pin ( 4 ) whose free end is formed with a shoulder ( 5 ). The second bracket part ( 2, 10 ) is formed with a hole ( 7 ) with two sections, where the first section has a larger diameter than the second section. This provides an edge between the two sections, which, together with the shoulder ( 5 ) of the pin, serves as a lock between the two bracket parts. If the length of the pin is larger than the length of the section of the smallest diameter, then the two hinge parts may be displaced relative to each other in the direction of the pin, which is an advantage when the hinge is used in connection with child safety barriers. The two bracket parts of the hinge are formed with respective locking parts which cooperate such that when one bracket part is displaced relative to the other bracket part, the bracket parts may be rotated relative to each other.

Abstract: Unlike in the prior art in which the correspondence between a feature and a judgment value in an intended area is obtained by a single threshold value, the correspondence of the judgment value is obtained independently for each feature by use of a look-up table or the like. This makes it possible to achieve an accurate correspondence between the judgment value and the feature and thus to improve the high processing accuracy. Also, in the prior art, the judgment is repeated several times to secure the accuracy of the judgment and based on the total result thereof, the final judgment is made. Since the accuracy of each process is improved, however, the number of times the judgment is repeated is reduced for a higher processing speed. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
